Dare Risk, Travel To the Moon

It seemed that I dared To climb the stairs toward heaven Effort over a millennium, or was it timeless? A spiritual goal pursued in this endless universe No pure maidens in the reception line Just me, newly arrived, still in motion Without direction, decisiveness, where to advance? Torn between space, life and the ticking clock While the ultimate brain conjured, matriculated, digested Gasped, overwhelmed, in hypnotic fashion Is it my arrival or my escape, or the inevitability of the day? Some have purpose, desires and goals Some follow their love instinct, or destiny Some must lead and conquer I myself motivate the everyman Every grain in my body still demands freedom, choice Every right I have to climb the staircase to freedom But even if you dare upward to heaven One must ask for forgiveness As you leave loved ones behind Leave your tools, though you still possess a keen intellect Almost stripped down, a passenger, daring With destiny around the corner, belief still questioned! So up and up, isolated from all I had but my brains A voyager, I risk life – wondering for what? For posterity – they don’t care. Eternal honor Soon to forget and superseded So a risk-taker, plunked down my wealth Accepted, aged, hope to bring sanity To experimenter’s, ego drive, vanity and famous Or just join a historic event coming for the advent of a new ride Safety and terminal cancellation as Iast into the rocket Now to please the leader, all a risk. Take off. Observe the rocket into the hemisphere –good takeoff. I am now helpless on the rocket airship to the Moon
